The Alpha Who Saved Me

Chapter 9

Tessa's POV

It's been two weeks since I drank that potion. And the same thing happened. Fever, body shaking, sleeping all the time and dizziness.

My mate found me several times on the floor at night. I felt bad for waking him but his touch was the only thing that stopped it. It soothed me.

But nothing serious happened. I was curious to why it took so long. I called Regina and she said it was normal. They had been stuck inside of me for 13 years and it was hard for them to find their way out.

I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared. I mean I don't know what gifts my mother had nor did I know my father's gifts. What if I had both of their gifts, not just one.

I wish they were here. It kills me knowing that I'll never see them or call them mom and dad. They did everything to keep me alive and I'll never know them. If they were hear they would probably tell me about their love story and tell me stories about their kinds. They would make me feel loved and safe. And not make me feel like a freak.

But I must admit I've been opening up to Mackenzie a lot more now. She was like my best friend. I told her everything , I trusted her so much.

She's been so great and patient these past two weeks. I've been going to her house now that she has Max it's hard for her to go out.

And I loved spending time with them. They helped get my mind off of things. Especially a certain someone, That made my heart go crazy.

He was still giving me the silent treatment and I hated every second of it. Now I know he felt when I use to ignore him. I cherish every second I get with him when he comes in at night.

I still cooked dinner every night. But he wouldn't eat from it. He just made sandwiches or he eats at Mackenzies before he comes home. Then he locks himself in his office or his room.

But the last couple of nights he's been coming home around midnight. It worried me. What if he was with another girl , maybe he found someone else. That thought made me so mad.

I've been here for six weeks and not once did I see or speak to anyone other than Mackenzie, her mate Scott and Isaac. That was it.

I knew my mate had a huge pack but I never saw any of it. His guards called me Luna but I didn't deserve that title. A luna ruled by her alpha mate. But I didn't help him I just made things worst.

I wanted things to change. I didn't like how things were. I wanted to give our relationship a chance. But I was too scared to face my mate. I don't think I'll be able to handle the rejection.

I wanted to become a better person. I'm tired of being alone and depressed. I just wanted to be happy for once in my life. It was so hard for me because I never experienced true happiness. I don't know what it feels like.

I was going to ask Mackenzie for help. She always knew what to do. I was unexperienced in love and happiness. And she was always happy. She always found a way.

I had set my mind to something and I was planning on getting it done. Before I chickened out. I was going to win my mate back and I was going to beg for his forgiveness.

I got out of bed and I went through my closet. I had very boring clothes. Thinking about it. Maybe I should ask Mackenzie to order me more attractive clothes.

I grabbed a black tank top dress that came mid thigh and I matched it with a grey plaid button up that also came mid thigh. I rolled the sleeves up and I grabbed my white coverse and I slipped them on.

I decided to leave my naturally curly hair down and I look at my boring face in the mirror. Maybe I should also ask Mackenzie to teach me how to use makeup. Just something natural. I don't want to look fake.
